Suicide Can Smile

She didn't look like herself Something was wrong She was too pale Her lips were painted red And her skin was ice cold Her eyes a soft blue Young but so old The faint beating of her fragile heart Such a sight would tear you apart She lays in her bed limbs un-moving Like a horror scene straight out of a movie Her breath like an air conditioner comes out cold The note on her dresser she had to fold Her eyes glaze over And her lungs collaspse She takes one last breath And she dies with a laugh R.I.P Sabrina Martinez
